Let me add, Poku is a wild ride. He is still a baby though. In my limited viewing of him, I think the guys who were high on him prior to the draft were right. Will he turn into a top notch player? Time will tell, he needs a lot of work. But his skill set for a 7 plus footer is unique. OKC being able to spoon feed him minutes is working. He appears not to be a guy who has lasting impacts after a bad game/games. It will be interesting to see what type of player he is in 3 years. At the beginning of the year, I thought there was equal chance of him succeeding/failing. Now I am in the camp of believing he will succeed. At what level....time will tell.
That OKC team is a little mirage though. The coaching job there has been fantastic. They have guys producing there this year who I think most teams wouldn't have put on their roster to begin the year. Guys playing big minutes for them. I am not sure what to make of their guys who have been playing well.
